Marsha Marsha Marsha!
I was expecting the pretty Davis girl from facebook to response to Senator Blackburn's data with the old "I was told there would be no math" girl response.
I'm sure the two Winklevii are laughing their asses off right now.

Why can't I find any democrats going after facebook in the last week?
How many lobbyist dollars has Zuckerberg given the democrats on their re-election campaigns since they went after him in 2020?

There are confirmed reports that facebook employees have been locked out of their buildings. They can't even use their key cards to get in. Something really big happened. Don't know yet quite what it is.

Okay the democrats are going after them as well. here is the whole Q&A
I tend to think this may be the main reason why the site is down and they locked their employees out of their buildings as of a few hours ago

all of Facebook's DNS records are gone. ALL of them. Apparently even using an IP address won't work.

New Zealand finally announced the end (read: failure) of their "zero community spread" COVID policy, and that they are going to have to finally slowly open up. So basically the epidemic is just going to be starting there right now, after a year and a half of destroying their economy and tourism in hopes that everything would all eventually just go away. Only a hundredth of a percent of their population has been exposed to the virus, and unbelievably, it seems that right now only 40% of their population is vaccinated? They need to be at like 80-90% vaccinated for this to have been a viable strategy (ie keep the virus out until everyone is super prepared) and they are only at 40%? Right now people seem to be cheering their prime minister's "heroic" stand against the virus and how they they "won" considering they only have had 27 deaths so far. I think those people are in for a rude awakening.

Why? B/c he's only worth $120 billion and they are worth about 1/20th of that (combined)? Yeah, that's hilarious...

They got $600 million from Zuckerberg in a settlement. That is their "payment" for giving him the idea for facebook. If they could have created facebook, they would have. But they couldn't. That is why they told Zuckerberg their idea in the first place. The Winklevii never wrote a line of code in their lives. They are not technical. They pulled a 3.95 GPA at Harvard but it was NOT in STEM. (Anyone can Ace economics, just read books and memorize bullshit that the professor thinks is important.)
It doesn't matter hedge. If you are worth $1 billion (and the Winklevii are worth way more than that) or worth $120 billion, it doesn't make any difference. The extra $119 billion will not have any meaningful impact on your lifestyle past the first billion, of that we can both agree. At the moment, the Winklevii are making a fortune with crypto-currency trading. They are doing just fine. But yes, I am sure they were laughing today because I am sure they still hold a grudge.

$6b v $120b is a fuck ton of difference. $120b gives you enough to money to fuck with a lot of different markets and major entities without putting forth all or most of your assets, and that’s a powerful ability.
Both amounts are ungodly large, but there is a vast amount of difference.
WRT to your assertion regarding anyone having the ability to get a 3.95 in economics at a university like Harvard, you are only showing how ignorant you are and how limited your world view is.
